MDC2460 Brushed DC Motor Controller, Dual Channel, 2 x 60A, 60V, USB, CAN, 8 Dig/Ana IO, Cooling plate with ABS cover
Roboteq’s MDC2xxx controller is designed to convert commands received from an RC radio, Analog Joystick, wireless modem, PC (via RS232 or USB) or microcomputer into high voltage and high current output for driving one or two DC
motors.
Designed for maximal ease-of-use, it is delivered with all necessary cables and hardware, and is ready to use in minutes. Using CAN bus, up to 127 controllers can be
networked at up to 1Mbit/s on a single twisted pair.
The controller features a high-performance 32-bit microcomputer and quadrature encoder inputs to perform advanced motion control algorithms in Open Loop or Close Loop (Speed or Position) modes.
The MDC2xxx features several Analog, Pulse and Digital I/Os which can be remapped as command or feedback inputs, limit switches, or many other functions.
The controller’s two motor channels can either be operated independently or mixed to set the direction and rotation of a vehicle by coordinating the motion of each motor.
